>Move over Spider-Gwen and Gwenpool, here comes the even more pun-tastic Gwenom.
>According to Spider-Gwen artist Robbi Rodriguez, the alternate dimension Gwen Stacy/Venom hybrid is graduating from a one-off Rob Guillory variant cover of last year’s Guardians of Knowhere #1 (right) to full-fledged character in what he called a year-long Spider-Gwen story arc beginning later this year.
>"Gwenom is happening!" Rodriguez told Newsarama gleefully at this weekend’s C2E2.
>While Marvel declined to comment-confirm Monday, Rodriquez told us the publisher just recently approved the idea, and that the arc will be “toned down by about half" from his original pitch. The storyline will be a collaboration of by the full series creative team of Rodriguez, Jason Latour and Rico Renzi, and they’ll begin work fleshing it out after the current "Spider-Women" crossover event is complete, according to the artist.
>"In the tradition of Spider-Gwen, we just made another book out of a pun we came up with in a bar," he said.
>Rodriguez appears to have high hopes for the character (there may or may not be talk of a spin-off series depending on response according to him) because as it turns out, it may be the artist’s last contribution to the comic book industry.
>Rodriquez and expanded upon his tweet to tell Newsarama the Gwenom arc will be his comic book … ahem … Gwan song.
>While he keeps the door open to do some future work “just for fun,” he’s apparently moving on to other professional pursuits.
>"We had a good run, dawg," he said.

Just have an entire earth of Gwen already
>>80956221
>it may be the artist’s last contribution to the comic book industry
Nice. For what reason, exactly?
You got to be shitting me.
>>80956349
Comics pay dick.
Most creators have other careers.
>>80956349
Probably his eyesight is getting too bad
>>80956221
>the artist’s last contribution to the comic book industry.
Thank God.
Who cares?
>>80956379
>BTFO by based Cho
>going blind
This just gets better and better.
>>80956342
What is it about Gwen that is making so much stuff?! She's just a blonde girl who copies the personalities of the other characters!
>everyone is Gwen
AND THE MARVEL UNIVERSE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME
>>80956221
did this retard just break his nda?
That could actually get his dumb ass fired, but it probably won't due to marvel being run by complete hacks and literal cucks
>>80956430
>did this retard just break his nda?
Why would you think that?
>>80956221
Fuck, I was just about to create a thread about this faggot retiring. Good riddance to fucking rubbish.
>>80956455
He went on record announcing a new book, while the company that hired him "declined to comment". He blew the load early.
>>80956404
trying to distract from MJ as Peter's best match?
Romanticizing the dead into someone better than they ever really were?
Trying to maximize on the goodwill for her that Spectacular generated?
>>80956497
That's why he's retiring, lol
>>80956404
Dunno but people(casual?) like her so Marvel milk her.
>>80956349
He's legally blind, with his eyesight getting worse and worse. Makes sense that at a certain point, he wouldn't be able to keep being an artist, and considering how low comics pay, he'd likely want to have his last few years of being an artist be on something either higher paying or that would get him some more long-term investment. Probably creator owned stuff since at least then he could keep getting money from the comic over-time rather than the flat payrate he gets with Marvel.
>>80956221
Females with a symbiote is my fetish.
>>80956610
He didn't last much anyway, did he? 5 years, 7?
>>80956508
>MJ
>Peter's best match
Nigga please
>>80956221
I love Rob Guillory's art but he's got a bit of a sameface with the females. That's basically just Amilia in a venom outfit.
>>80956610
>work hard all your life polishing skills to become an artist
>go blind
ouch.
>>80956221
>(there may or may not be talk of a spin-off series depending on response according to him)
jesus christ make it stop
>>80956683
Yeah, I'd feel bad for him were it not the fact that he's a total douche.
>>80956221
Call me when they do the Spider-Gwen Clone Saga, The Other Spider-Gwen, or Ultimate Spider Gwen.
>>80956221
After he leave, Cho should take all his books
>>80956221
Outrage Cho variant when?
>>80956804
Though funny, it'd be a waste of Cho's talents. He's best suited for monsters and muscles. Perfect for Chulk.
I read OP as "Move over Robbie Reyes" and was about to go full OUTRAGE. Here's praying Gwen doesn't end up with the bald symbiote look, though we all know she will.
Is Spider-Gwen the only book Marvel had going that doesn't take place primarily in 616? Well, other than Weirdworld, I guess.
FINALLY.
This is honestly one of the biggest reasons I was still reading Spider Gwen, in hopes we would get Gwenom.
>>80956597
Normies don't even know who Gwen Stacy is. I'd be surprised if she were popular with anyone outside tumblr.
Pun not intended
>>80957012
You are literally retarded. The only reason Gwen Stacy has become a thing recently was because of normies being sad Gwen died in The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
>>80956730
Give it two years.
why do this when Mania already exists?
>>80956923
I miss Robbie too, anon
>>80956923
Weirdworld is still technically 616. And no, Web Warriors' whole premise revolves around them hopping from universe to universe, and their main base of operations is on Loomworld, not 616.
>>80957012
Well, ASM, one thing I can say is normie like her more than MJ, thanks to Raimi.
>gwenom happening and robbie fucking off
absolutely perfect in every way possible
now they need to give the book to the gwenpool team
fucking just make a gwen division
>>80956430
-->literal cucks
What?
>>80956404
She's a blank slate. Her characterization has been long forgotten, but she still has a recognizable name and look, so people just play dress-up with her for easy progressive brownie points.
>>80956497
>He went on record announcing a new book
It's merely the spider-gwen arc after spider-women.
>>80956248
>"We had a good run, dawg,"
and nothing of value was lost
>>80956846
But his Spider-Gwen is really cute.
>>80956248
Let the door hit you on the way out you insufferable faggot.
>>80958147
/tv/ term
>>80957245
Because Marvel shelved her and I'm still butthurt about it.
>>80958343
It's kinda hard to make a spider-gwen that isn't really cute. Maybe if Spider-gwen stopped wearing pants and got RIPPED then he'd be a good fit.
>>80958401
I think he could do a good job on such a book, if only because she would stand out compared to the supporting cast of statuesque men and women.
>>80956945
Careful there, sexualizing his baby will earn you a threat of physical violence.
>>80958388
it's a shame, she has a lot of potential
The symbiote, her hell-mark, her skill with the powers, the death of her dad, the legacy of being yet another Venom offspring...
There's a lot to explore there.
>>80956221
>Rodriguez, Jason Latour
Damn, got themselves a real cuck squad there
>>80956221
>tfw you get blown the fuck out SO HARD you quit your job
>>80957245
>why do this when Mania already exists?
Because nobody cares about Mania the Edgehog.
>>80956342
I rather they dina spin off that focuses on Kongpin Matt, that was a good idea.
Or hell just do Sp//dr or whatever her name wad I liked that comic.
>>80956221
>Missing the glorious black suit Spider-Gwen opportunity and going for Gwenom instead
>Not going MJ-Venom
WHY
Hey maybe SG will get a new creative team, I'm hoping. Keep Bengal and put someone else on writing.
>>80958946
Nothing can fix that train wreck.
>>80958946
>>Missing the glorious black suit Spider-Gwen opportunity
>>Not going MJ-Venom
we dont even know if this are or not happening
mjvemon is the most logical option if they want to keep the symbiote around
>>80956683
>>80956703
even douches deserve better than that, anon.
>Spider-Gwen
>Gwenpool
>Gwenom
Fuck it.
Let's just make everyone Gwen. Gwenisher. Gwendevil. Iron Gwen. Captain Gwenmerica. The Incredible Gwenk. The Gwentastic 4. The Mighty Gwenor. Gwenverine. Gwenclops. Gweneto. Professor Gwenavier.
>>80959161
That will undoubtedly happen as a mini in the near future.
>>80959161
>The Mighty Gwenor
im suprise we ddint saw this one during secret wars with all those thors
>>80959161
>Marvel has a month of tie ins like DC's gimmick months
>the tie ins are every hero is replaced with Gwen
>>80959211
>>80959211
>>80959216
>>80959236
>>80959236
Hell, why stop there? Let the Gwenfection spread.
SuperGwen
BatGwen
Gwen Lantern
Wonder Gwen
Gwenborg
>>80959161
The Unstoppable Juggegwen
Red Gwen
Titanium Gwen
Absorbing Gwen
Gwen-23
The Scarlet Gwen

Well, this is an outrage.
>>80959262
Gwensilver

Harley Gwen
Power Gwen
>Gwenom's happening
It was inevitable, but I'm looking forward to it.
>Rodriguez is leaving
Good. Here's hoping his replacement does a better job.
>Gwenom might get her own series
Please no. A story arc in Spider-Gwen will suffice.
clone saga on the gwen verse when?
if you dont want to give me kaine or ben back at least give me the scarlet gwen ssiters
>>80959300
I SAID LET THE GWENFECTION SPREAD! ALL SHALL BE GWENFECTED! NONE SHALL SURVIVE!
GWEN STACY IS!
GWEN STACY IS!
GWEN STACY IS!
i like what they're doing with gwen, comics should be more experimental
>>80959161
Too late
>Venom is a hero now because most readers are too young to remember when he was ever a bad guy
>but here's a new evil Venom anyway
Well fuck you too, Marvel.
>>80959437
>>80959437
>>80959460
This is only the beginning. Soon. Soon you shall all know the glory of the One True Gwen. Soon you shall all be one with her.
>>80959460
>>80959482
>>80959510
>>80959527
>>80959549
>>80959569
>>80959590
And other than Gwenpool and Gwenom, I think that was all the variants.
>>80956404
She was pretty good in the movie and people liked the relationship between her and Peter. That's it. I mean she's a character from the 70's that's been dead for decades. But movies can change a lot anon. Remember that Iron Man used to be a b-lister before his movie.
female symbiote suit is my fetish
>>80959161
What would happen if Gwen and FRANK Castle meet? Do they get Frank'd or Gwenefied?
Someone at Marvel realllly has a thing for Gwen. Which is fine by me.
Blonde girls>>>>>>Redheads
>>80958946
Obviously Gwen gets the symbiote, she rejects it and then it latches on to MJ.
Was there ever any AU where MJ was a Superhero?
>>80960173
either way my penis wins
>>80960248
She was Spider-Woman in Exiles.
Put Frank Cho on the book just to piss Robbi off.
>>80956221
>it may be the artist’s last contribution to the comic book industry.
Thank fucking god. How that hack got hired will always baffle me.
>>80960365
Are they in a feud or something?
>>80960427
>le robbi is a bad artist meam
he is one of the few good artists marvel has left
>>80960695
what are you even doing here rreeeeeee
There was a time when cape comics feel mytifying and emblematic, maybe even iconic
Now most of Marvel (and big part of DC) stuff feel like somebody grabbed a SuperHero corpse, stuck a long pole in its but and parade it around saying "LOOK LOOK" while making funny voices
his eye condition is hardly a reason to retire
simple stravism (what most people who need glasses have) can leave you legally blind; you can still function with glasses/contacts but you are blind in the legal sense.
what he has is a bit worse but with corrective eyewear or surgery, he can still lead a productive life.
>>80960849
>he is one of the few good artists marvel has left
That is objectively false.
His art is riddled with fundamental errors. From anatomy to perspective on nearly every page.
>>80961102
thats like saying bachalo's stylized art is bad because its full of fundamental anatomy errors
robbie's art is highly stylized as well
>>80959621
i need Dr Gwoom
>>80961164
>The Style Excuse
Style does not excuse eye sockets moving up and down on their heads or them gaining/losing 10lbs in their faces from panel to panel.
Having different ears or any other consistency errors he constantly does because he's so rushed and lazy.
He draws on a computer in Manga Studio, there is no excuse for lopsided, off centered faces when it literally takes a button press to quickly mirror the image and make sure the proportions are correct.
>>80959161
>>80959356
I could actually see this as a mini starring Gwenpool as the only non-Stacy Gwen left in the world, immune to the Gwenplague and forced to find a way to return the universe to normal before she's cancelled by oversaturation of the market with Gwens.
>>80961164
Bachalo's current art is bad compared to Bachalo's old stuff. He went full weeb and lost a lot of the charm he had in his vertigo days and now seems like an off-brand Adam Warren.
>>80959161
Gwenter Soldier?
>>80961390
i dont see his art as "bad" at all. he has gone deeper into his own stylistic approach and that may be very hit and miss with some people tho.
the most detrimental part of his work is usually the material he is illustrating these days
>>80961322
The way i understand it, he goes more for a more organic flow/approach than proper "correctness"
you may not like it, but many people do
>>80961542
I'd certainly say it's worse, especially since he isn't experimenting anymore. He's not bad, but he's messing around with things like he used to when he'd put in fish eye lense shots and the other interesting things he'd do in Shade the Changing Man.
That might be because the material he's illustrating doesn't call for it, since there isn't much reason to play around with a mainline Xmen book, but I still feel like it makes his art a lot staler now.
What is the purpose of this Gwen shit? Seriously.
Does /co/ still live in la-la land, and legit think ASM2 was anything close to a decent film?
>>80962290
normies like gwen, "geek" "nerd" girls also like gwen and the gwen variants
its easy money anon
what does /co/ liking asm2 have to do with this?
>>80962290
I don't know but they don't do it as well as Mexico did in the Surprising Super-Man when they ran out of American stories.
>>80956221
>All of these Gwen books
Did people really enjoy the ASM Gwen this much?
>>80962398
>>80962341
>>80962290
cute "not too pretty" blond hipster girl with super powers in a noir universe
whats not to like?
>>80962451
That sounds horrible, and reeks vaaaaaaguely of something tumblr would like.
>>80956730
One More Gwen
>>80962341
>what does /co/ liking asm2 have to do with this?
It's the only logical reason I can think of for its overstayed and unwelcome presence.
>>80961348
Is that you Chris Hastings?
>>80962512
wait, so /co/ made spidergwen popular because they liked asm2 gwen?
fucking meme magic im telling you
>>80959258
>>80959356
Someone should seriously edit the Darkseid IS page of Final Crisis with Gwen
>>80959569
I wish Laura had a suit like that.
>>80956455
marvel has declined to comment after he explicitely stated that he was working on a new project
thats straight up nda buisness, and he should get fired, just like any other job, but marvel will just let him break contract due to them being cucks
I hope Cho draws a variant with spider gwen on the back carrying a box as if she'd just been fired from her job whimpering "o-outrage"
>Frank Cho bullied Robbi Rodriguez out of comics
Based
>>80956404
Name recognition, no personality, pretty blonde girl. It doesn't hurt that she's a Spidey knock off.
>>80957245
She's got Sasuke hair.
>>80960269
>licking her own titty
I mean I guess what other use is having a tongue that long for?
>>80956670
Because he (intentionally) doesn't draw 99% of his characters as attractive. As a result he only has one attractive girl face.
I love him too, though.
>>80964023
Having big tits helps too.
>>80962489
>blonde and white
You truly believe that tumblr would like that? Maybe if she filled out the diversity bingo, they'll consider.
I wish they just bring the original symbiote Gwen (and Jess too).
>>80964204
*they would
Post Gwenom
>>80956221
>>80964383
What was that? "No, more Gwen," you say?
>>80964315
so how bad is the costume going to look?
just a black recolor? something like the op one?
what are your hopes and dreams for it?
>>80956349
Because he's an artist who suffers from a degenerative eye condition. He's already legally blind.
>>80959482
>Gwenstorm
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE whitewashing!
>>80965650
>you will never be raped by a violent, aggressive Gwenom who is probably not even planning to let you live afterward
>>80956248
>>80956221
Spider Gwen's ongoing has been a huge failure. Plots that go nowhere, constant relaunches, etc. They need a professional capable of a long run "25+ issues" on the book.
>>80967218
>constant relaunches,
retard pls
One relaunch when the entire line of marvel comics was relaunched, and it picked right off where the other left
>>80956221
>>"In the tradition of Spider-Gwen, we just made another book out of a pun we came up with in a bar," he said.
Yup
>>80956597
I'd milk Gwen if you know what I'm sayin
>>80967218
You know, Spider-Gwen has enough to complain about with you plain making stuff up.
>>80967218
totally agree, it was a failure
now its getting kinda better
but i wish they dropped the "here is the next gwenverse version of a peter villain"
thats a whole new world and they are only reusing villains but with a new origin or gimmick
>>80965650
>The hood has teeth
>>80968221
>thats a whole new world and they are only reusing villains but with a new origin or gimmick
It was either Rodriguez or someone else on the creative team who said that they are intentionally avoiding new characters because of they did, Sony would have exclusive access to them for the films. Spider-Gwen is part of the Spider-Man franchise, hence it's all fair game to Sony.
>>80965654
I want us to get Spider-Gwenom in some costume and then get MJ-Venom after Gwen has her black suit arc. But all I want for the book right now is for Gwen to be developed outside of her reactions with people from other universes. Save that for later.
>>80959621
>Stokoe
HOW
>>80959621
>Gwendusa literally sticking her fingers into Lojkaw's face
Does Stokoe not now how Lokjaw works or does he just not care?
>>80956404
>What is it about Gwen that is making so much stuff?!
Emma Stone
At this point, I'm surprised there isn't an alternate Earth where Gwen is every superhero.Unless it's already a thing and I don't know about it.
You know, I'd be okay with Spider-Gwen and everything if it led to its natural conclusion.
Earth-Gwen. An Earth where everyone is Gwen Stacy. And if you travel there, every Gwen starts to act like a zombie and try to bite you, so they can turn you into a Gwen as well.
That one's free of charge, Marvel.
Also Spider-Gwen Annual #1 will feature Earth-65 Captain America in June.
>>80956221
This Gwen Stacy meme is getting ridiculous
>>80959460
I'd fuck Gwoot desu
>>80971194
What happens if Gwen Prime, otherwise known as The original Gwen, comes to the GwenVerse
>Gwevengers comic in 2017
I like to think that all this Gwen shit is product of Marvel watching DC shit out tons of Harleys comic and Marvel going " You know, we can do better than that"
>>80972502
it was actually the product of loads of cosplayers and fan art about a char that was supposed to be shown in a few eps and then completely forgotten
meme magic worked
